Any thoughts/experience using T or hGH for patients with Parkinson's Disease. Seen some crazy shit where they were injecting hGH into the brain but that's about all I've been able to track down...
Trying to find another way to help my pops who was diagnosed a couple years ago.
 
CONCLUSIONS:

Testosterone therapy was generally well tolerated in elderly men with PD and probable testosterone deficiency. While there was no significant difference in the motor and nonmotor scales between the TT and placebo groups at the end of 8 weeks compared with baseline, this may be due to several study limitations, including small sample size, a strong placebo effect with intramuscular therapy, and short follow-up that did not allow measurement of delayed effects of TT in some subjects. Until more definitive studies are reported, practitioners should be particularly cautious in treatment of low testosterone concentrations in men with PD and borderline testosterone deficiency, and careful consideration should be given to the risks vs the benefits of TT.
